Charity Partners

Those who have served our country deserve help when they face hardship. As the Army's national charity, we are here to provide a lifetime of support to serving soldiers, veterans, and their immediate families.

Your support enables us to:

• be there for young serving families coping with sudden bereavement or traumatic loss.
• provide support to wounded, injured, and sick soldiers into old age.
• help with housing, education, and training for employment for veterans of all ages.
• provide for older former soldiers and their widows or widowers who may find themselves isolated and lonely.

Through grants to individuals in need, often made within 48 hours, and funding for around 86 specialist charities, we support approximately 75,000 members of the Army family each year. This includes essential funding to our long-term delivery partners including Combat Stress, Erskine and SSAFA.

Help us to make sure that support is available to the men and women who have put everything on the line to defend us, and our country.

At Help for Heroes, we believe those who serve our country deserve support when they’re wounded.

Every day, seven people have to leave the Armed Forces as a result of physical or psychological wounds; their lives changed forever.

We help them, and those still serving, to recover and get on with their lives. We give them physical, psychological, career, financial and welfare support when they need it. We also support their families, because they too can be affected by their loved one’s wounds.

We receive almost no funding from the Government, which means we rely on the spirit and generosity of the great British public, our partners and volunteers to keep going. Rest assured, we continue to put pressure on the Government to do more.

So far, with your help, we've supported more than 22,000 people, but we know that many more still need us. We won’t stop until every wounded veteran gets the support they deserve.

We’re the RAF Benevolent Fund, and we’re here to support people who are serving – or have served – and their families, when they need it most. We provide the financial, emotional and practical support that helps people live with the dignity and independence they deserve. Together, we’ll continue to be here for as long as they need us.

The Royal British Legion (RBL), sometimes referred to as the The British Legion or The Legion, is a British charity providing financial, social and emotional support to members and veterans of the British Armed Forces, their families and dependants.

Perhaps best known for the yearly Poppy Appeal and Remembrance services, the Legion is a campaigning organisation that promotes the welfare and interests of current and former members of the British Armed Forces.

The Legion support nearly 36,000 War Disablement Pension cases for war veterans and make around 300,000 welfare and friendship visits every year.

Legion campaigns include calls for more research into: Gulf War syndrome and compensation for its victims; upgrading of War Pensions; the extension of endowment mortgage compensation for British military personnel serving overseas; and better support for British military personnel resettling into civilian life.

The Legion holds a fund-raising drive each year in the weeks before Remembrance Sunday, during which paper poppies are offered to the public in return for a donation to the Legion. The Poppy is the trademark of The Royal British Legion and other products bearing the Poppy, are sold throughout the year as part of the ongoing fundraising.

There are over 50 Legion bands around the world, each run and funded independently. They include full concert show bands, brass ensembles, pipe and drum bands, marching bands and youth bands.

The Royal British Legion has an extensive network of Social Clubs called Legion Clubs throughout the United Kingdom.

We want our Armed Forces (both Regular and Reserves), veterans and their families to know they can depend on SSAFA for support now and for the rest of their lives. Our values mean we are committed, practical and understanding.

The Royal Navy and Royal Marines Charity is the principal charity of the Royal Navy. It works hard to ensure that sailors, marines and their families are supported, for life.

Through grants to ships and units who are deployed, post-service transition, family support and care in old age, the RNRMC is helping to create a world in which our serving men and women’s sacrifice is recognised and that they are supported no matter what. We are there to provide a safety net for those who find themselves in immediate need, we support counselling services, mental health provision and those who need the most basic of help, a roof over their heads and a hot meal.

As a world-class grant maker of over ten years, the RNRMC has distributed in excess of 60 million pounds in support of the naval service https://www.rnrmc.org.uk/about-us
